it’s a SHONDI MIRACLE! thanks to Indie88Toronto, balcony tickets to our december 20th SHONDI FESTOON show at the danforth music hall are only $8.88 (plus stupid ticketmaster fees that we have no say in and will grumble about forever)!
why $8.88 you ask? well, according to the official shondi text...
“In 888 A.D. year of the Anglo-Saxon King Alfred the Great, Emperor Zhaozong of Tang, and Khal Drago, a Northumbrian miller, John Shondi, lost his son when Danish raiders burned his mill outside Jorvik. To get revenge on the Danes, Shondi painted his face using dyes made from local foliage to appear as a colon (old English for Clown) and would sneak into Jorvik (York) at night and swap children for flowers and urinate in Danish beer. Thus the joyous holiday of Shondi Festoon was born. Happy Shondi!” 🌸💐🤡💐🌸

with shondi festoon rapidly approaching, let’s all look back and reminisce about those five magical sold out shows at lee’s palace in april. and as you watch steve jump on the crowd, consider doing the same and jumping on these tickets before they’re sold out too.
december 20th. danforth music hall. happy shondi. 🌸💐🤡💐🌸
